making faux tea

Easy to make but kind of expensive.
I use the acrylic water from the floral dept (cost 6.99 here at WalMart) and it takes the whole thing for 1 cup of tea. I use oil paint and have to play w/it to get the right color.

I use E6000 glue to attach the cup to the saucer, also the same for the spoon and teabag.

I make the faux bread stuff from salt dough. Hope that helps you some. I threw away a lot of tea or turned it into cocoa or coffee trying to get the color just right. They also have color tints that they sell at Hobby Lobby for the Envirotech stuff but boy it really is expensive so I try to stay away from that, especially since I only sell mine for $12-15.

I would think you could do the same w/the martini if you can get the coloring right. I have made cokes, milk, wine, apple juice, grape juice, cocoa, tea and coffee.
